Questions

How big is the Lard61 PCB?

It measures 289.8 × 99.2 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1 mm thick.

What parts does the Lard61 use?

157 parts, built around the RP2040, W25Q32JVSSIQ, ABM8-272-T3 and KH-TYPE-C-16P. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.

Where can I download the Lard61 KiCad files?

From the beulard/lard61 repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is kb.kicad_pcb and its schematic kb.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Lard61 design in my own project?

Its repository publishes it under the CC0-1.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
